House Sitting in Ballard, Seattle

“Justin took care of our two dogs for a long weekend. He kept in touch with us throughout the weekend, sending us pictures and updates. The house was very clean when we got home. We have had other sitters where we could tell the dogs had had several accidents inside while we were gone. Not with Justin! We were happy to see that the dogs were well cared for and happy when we arrived home.”

“A big big thank you to Karissa for being so amazing with my huge Malamute dog. she’s the sweetest and most patient sitter ever. I was running late, but she totally rolled with it and stayed a bit longer to make sure Tanuki was good. Plus, she kept me updated with his pics. Thanks a bunch for taking such great care of him! Tanuki was absolutely delighted to stay with her!”

“Theresa was great! She took excellent care of our doodles and left our house in great shape. Would definitely book her again to stay with our pooches.”

“Ami is great! It was the first time I was away from my puppy so I figured my puppy would be nervous. Ami sent pics of my puppy playing and having a great time which was so reassuring to see. Highly recommend Ami! I’m booking her again for next weekend.”

“Christian has been amazing with our dog Koda. Koda can be slow to warm up to new people but he immediately loved Christian and his calming energy. Christian has gone above and beyond to take time getting to know Koda before we take a long trip. We always know our dog is in amazing hands with Christian!”

“Sydney is very kind and great with Tanuki! This is her third time sitting Tanuki and he really likes his company. She always makes sure to keep me updated with the pics! Thanks Sydney!”

“Elena took care of my cat while I was on vacation for a week. She did a wonderful job feeding her and giving her daily medication. I highly recommend Elena for all your pet and house sitting needs.”

“Caroline was an absolute dream to work with! She is so warm and caring, and went out of her way to ensure our puppy had the best weekend ever while my husband and I were both out of town. She is communicative and professional and we would absolutely love to work with her again.”

“Michelle was great care taker for our dog cookie. She gave us daily updates and photos. The photos were high quality and showcased cookie in a great way. She was transparent when she broke a glass at our house and cleaned it up. I appreciated this transparency. She was also flexible on the return time which I appreciated.”

“Hunter was fed, watered, medicated, and everything indicates she did a great job hanging out with him for a week He appears to have appreciated the company :)”

“Katie took great care of our pup Berry while we were out of town! She kept in great communication with us about how she was doing and leaving/return times.! She also left our house very clean! We hope to hire Katie again! Thank you Katie!”

“We booked with Sierra to care for our kitty, Guillaume. We had to make some changes with our original booking and Sierra was flexible and responsive to our needs which we greatly appreciated. During her care she was great at keeping us up to date with photos making us feel that Guillaume was in good hands while we were away. We will definitely book with Sierra in the future!”

“Sam is such an excellent pet sitter, and I feel grateful I found her! She not only took great care of my high-maintenance cat but kept me updated with adorable pictures and videos as I was gone missing him. I will definitely be rebooking her for any future trips!”

“Tara took care of our two 15 yr old cats and our home for a few days while we went to see the eclipse. One of our cats requires quite a bit of attention including medication which I informed Tara about before she accepted the job. I knew immediately when Tara visited us before our trip, she was the right person for the job. She handled our infirmed cat with gentleness and ease upon first meeting him. Tara was also attentive to all my requests and too many details. For the first time since our cat got sick, my husband and I were confident it was ok for us to go away for a few days. We are so happy and grateful we connected with Tara. I highly recommend her, (but hope she is available next time we go away)”

“This was Oliver’s first time staying with Kris, and things went so well! Kris is super communicative, making sure she understands your dog and your home before booking. She was flexible in her timing, making sure she made time to come by and say hello before I left on my trip. I was gone for 11 days and understandably nervous to leave my Oliver, but she sent regular photos and kept me updated on whatever they were getting into that day. My house was spotless when I came home - she was super tidy and put everything in its place before she left. I would absolutely recommend Kris to others, although I don’t want to - I’d rather keep her schedule free so she can always watch Oliver. :)”

“Jennifer did a great job housesitting and taking care of my dog. She's very responsible and communicates well. Some of my written directions were confusing so she asked for clarification, which I appreciated. I would definitely ask her to dog sit again!”

“Zach did an excellent job of looking after our house and newfoundland. The house was spotless and the dog happy. He showed up as planned and handled any unexpected problems well. We would certainly use him again.”

“Sophie did an amazing job watching our little guy, and our house, while we were away for a couple weeks. She provided great updates (frequent pictures!) and provided fun experiences for our dog. I would highly recommend Sophie to anyone seeking a dog sitter, she’s fantastic!”

“Super prompt, checked in daily with photos, and the dogs seemed relaxed and happy when I got back from my trip. The apartment was also tidy and neat. Thank you so much for your help!!”

About: I have been watching animals and house sitting since middle school. I love spending time with animals and making sure they are well cared for. I am currently looking for a full time position so my schedule is very flexible at the moment. I can provide care at any time. I am a very clean and organized person. I make sure to leave the space exactly how I left it. I will treat your home and your pets with respect.
